Yield: 4 servings.

Using the palm of your hand, pound the steaks once or twice.
Season the steaks with salt and cracked pepper. In a large

When the oil is very hot, sear the steaks for about 3 minutes
on the first side. Turn the steaks over and sauté for
2 minutes on the second side.
Add the mushrooms, onions and garlic and sauté for
